Chapter 665: Lu Pingan kills the Wolf King! Yuanying appears!
Arid Scorpion City.
This is an oasis city in the Endless Desert. Although not as grand as Black Desert Immortal City, it is considered a medium to large oasis, boasting numerous Cultivators and factions.
Especially in recent years, with the Liang Yue War and the turmoil in Wu Country, many Cultivators have relocated to this desert oasis to settle down.
However, these days, Arid Scorpion City has not been peaceful.
The cause was a conflict that arose several months ago between a Young Master from Arid Scorpion City and a Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator at an auction.
After the auction, the Young Master led people to ambush and kill the Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator, but he was unexpectedly slain by this Loose Cultivator.
However, an even more astonishing event occurred: the Young Master’s Family Old Ancestor, a False Core Immortal Master, went to hunt down this Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator, and was also slain by this Loose Cultivator.
When this news spread, it instantly caused a huge uproar!
After all, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator slaying a False Core Immortal Master is big news no matter where it happens.
According to rumors, this Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator was able to kill a False Core Immortal Master entirely by relying on the power of a Secret Treasure!
For a time, this news not only caused a stir in Arid Scorpion City, attracting the attention of countless people, but also quickly spread to other oasis cities in the desert, and even to Black Desert Immortal City.
At this moment, tens of thousands of miles outside Arid Scorpion City.
“Roar!”
A giant wolf, massive and agile, with a body seemingly cast from scorching flames and dark iron, roared, stirring up a fiery yellow sand hurricane.
Many sand worms, dormant and living beneath the desert sands, were blown up by this scorching and terrifying gale, then turned to charcoal and burned to ashes.
Just then, the giant wolf’s blood-flame burning pupils seemed to discover something. Its body lunged towards a patch of sand, its strong and powerful limbs plunging into the yellow sand.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——”
The giant wolf’s massive body ignited with blazing dark red flames, like solidified flowing magma.
And the yellow sand beneath its feet flowed like magma, scorching and boiling, spreading in all directions.
“Whoosh!”
A moment later, from within the yellowish-grey sand, a figure enveloped in Spiritual Light burst forth, shooting through the air in one direction.
“Still trying to escape? Do you really think that just because you’re a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, you can escape from this Lord’s hands!”
However, besides the Scarlet Flame Giant Wolf, there was also a tall, burly man nearby, clad in a black robe and cloak, with a sinister expression.
Seeing the figure emerge from the sand, he snorted coldly and clapped his hand forward.
The surging magical power and red light formed a hideous and terrifying wolf head, which then bit down firmly on the figure.
“Pfft!”
Facing the pouncing wolf head, the figure’s body’s Spiritual Light shield instantly shattered, his whole body became scalding hot, his magic robe was scorched and damaged, and he wailed.
However, the next moment, a small purple sword appeared in the figure’s embrace. The sword light split, one becoming eight, instantly breaking free from the wolf head.
“Exotic Treasure? I’d like to see how many tricks you have!”
Seeing this Foundation Establishment Cultivator break through his spell with an Exotic Treasure, the Wolf King’s face darkened. Recalling some unpleasant memories, a scarlet long banner appeared in his hand.
As a Core Formation Immortal Master, it was humiliating to use a Magic Treasure against a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
However, due to underestimating an opponent in his early years, he missed a great Opportunity. Now, he treated everything with seriousness, using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!
Especially since this kid possessed three or four top-tier treasures, he was simply a Child of Luck!
“Roar!”
The Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf roared at the figure, forming a fiery sound wave to prevent him from escaping.
Then, the long banner in the Wolf King’s hand fluttered, and Rolling wolf smoke surged into the sky, ceaseless, instantly making this scorching desert as hot as if doused with fire.
Immediately after, this wolf smoke sealed off the heavens and the eight directions, transforming into numerous grey wolves that tore at the figure.
“Damn it!”
Seeing this situation, the figure’s face turned pale and extremely unsightly.
Although he possessed a great Opportunity, he was ultimately only a Foundation Establishment Eighth Stage Cultivator.
Relying on a Third-tier Talisman, a Talisman Treasure, an Exotic Treasure, and a Secret Art, being able to barely struggle was already his limit.
Now, severely injured and with his magical power almost depleted, he simply couldn’t escape anymore.
His face was contorted with ferocity and unwillingness. He fully activated the Exotic Treasure in his hand, unleashing a powerful and domineering purple-gold radiance, unwilling to give up.
However, the power of this Exotic Treasure was ultimately limited, far from being a match for a Core Formation Immortal Master. Under the roaring of the grey wolves, he spat out blood, and was then lifted before the Wolf King, like a dead dog.
“Your Opportunity, young man, is truly not small. If it were an Early Stage Core Formation Cultivator, you might have even escaped.”
The Wolf King held the youth with one hand, his eyes gleaming with cruelty, and he said with a sneer.
Then, he held the sword orb, which glowed with a faint purple-gold light, in his hand and examined it, recognizing it as a top-tier Exotic Treasure capable of performing the sword light division technique.
The opponent had used this Exotic Treasure to slay a False Core Cultivator and break his own spell.
After a brief examination, he continued to search the Storage Pouch in the youth’s embrace.
After all, in their recent exchange, this kid had an endless stream of tricks, his Opportunity was truly extraordinary!
“Roar!”
Just as the Wolf King was examining the Storage Ring in his hand, the Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf nearby suddenly let out a low growl, looking warily in one direction and warning the Wolf King.
The Wolf King turned his head to look.
He saw a small black dot rapidly approaching from the edge of the Endless Desert of yellow sand.
One breath!
Two breaths!
In just two breaths, the figure quickly approached, his form and appearance clearly visible.
This was a man with an ordinary face, but a very tall and sturdy build, full of powerful strength.
Although he didn’t display too much Aura, the Wolf King sensed a hint of danger from his aggressive demeanor.
The Wolf King scrutinized the man, but had no memory of him.
But he knew that the other party had come for him.
Or… his prey!
The Wolf King’s eyes narrowed, cold, cruel, and filled with aggressive pressure.
His prey, he would never allow anyone else to snatch!
“Roar!”
The Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf looked at the tall figure who had completely closed in, roared, and pounced.
The tall figure’s bronze-colored body glowed with a faint golden light. His arms, like Dragons, swung out powerfully, and two illusory figures, one Dragon and one Tiger, actually coiled around them.
“Bang!”
A Dragon roar and Tiger roar sounded.
The Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf, which was only a step away from breaking through to the Third-tier Middle Stage, had its body directly shattered and blood splattered under this punch, flying horizontally and creating a huge deep pit in the sand.
If its body hadn’t turned to sand the moment it was punched, it might have been killed by a single blow.
“Who are you?”
The Wolf King’s face was solemn, and two terrifying beams of light shot from his eyes, like two sharp swords, eager to devour their prey.
“The one who will kill you!”
Lu Ping’an said no more, nor did he reveal his early identity as ‘Lu Wu’.
His escape from the Wolf King during the Foundation Establishment Stage had already spread in Black Desert Immortal City. Besides the Wolf King, many others were secretly paying attention to him.
If it were to be known that he had broken through to Core Formation and returned, it would likely attract even more covetous individuals.
As his words fell, his body crackled, his muscles, like coiling Dragons, burst forth with infinite precious light. With a step, he cracked the yellow earth and charged towards the Wolf King.
“Body Cultivator!”
The Wolf King’s eyes narrowed slightly. He threw the figure in his hand, gripped the long banner of his magic robe, and Rolling wolf smoke surged into the sky, forming a pitch-black wall and more than ten grey wolves, surrounding Lu Ping’an.
However.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!!!”
The fists, wreathed in Dragon and Tiger phantoms, were incomparably domineering, as if carrying the immense power of the four seas and eight wildernesses, directly smashing through layers of wall defenses.
“Not good… This person’s Body Refining has probably reached the Third-tier Late Stage! When did such a top-tier Body Cultivator appear in the desert?”
The Wolf King’s expression changed abruptly, and an alarm bell rang wildly in his heart, realizing the intense danger.
After all, whether it’s Qi Refining or Body Refining, the Middle Stage and Late Stage of Core Formation are both a watershed!
Whether this level of Body Refining can kill him is one thing.
But with such a physique, he probably had no hope of counter-killing!
“Roar!”
The Wolf King immediately let out a low growl, and a wolf seal filled with Evil Qi emerged from his mouth.
The wolf seal appeared lifelike, as if instantly resurrected. It roared and howled, then transformed into a pitch-black, hideous, and terrifying armor full of sharp edges.
In an instant, the Wolf King’s entire Aura became sharper, his burly figure grew a few points taller, and another wolf-headed great saber appeared in his hand, slashing towards Lu Ping’an, stirring up terrifying flames.
Lu Ping’an’s might did not diminish in the slightest; instead, it became even more fierce and domineering. His fist force was like a combined Dragon and Tiger attack, so heavy it was suffocating.
“Boom!”
The wolf-headed great saber and the fist clashed fiercely.
One could see a golden jade ring on the fist emitting a blazing and domineering light, fiercely intertwining with the fist force, as if a hundred thousand volcanoes had erupted simultaneously, sweeping violently in all directions.
The wolf smoke and grey wolf phantoms formed by the scarlet long banner gradually dissipated under this terrifying and overbearing power.
The Wolf King knew that facing such a Body Cultivator, he had to create distance between them. Using this vast and controllable power, he suddenly flew horizontally, saying in a deep voice, “Who are you, Your Excellency? When did I offend Your Excellency?”
He had established the Wolf King Society in Black Desert Immortal City and had survived for so long, so he naturally knew who could be killed and who could not be offended.
When encountering a strong enemy or a Cultivator he couldn’t afford to provoke, he was willing to bow his head and apologize immediately.
Lu Ping’an did not speak, continuing to charge at the Wolf King.
Although he had not mastered the two Cultivation Techniques and cultivated Divine Abilities, he had already adapted to his Physical Body strength.
So he directly used his most proficient fist techniques to engage the Wolf King in close combat.
This battle was not only for revenge but also to test everything he had learned!
“Fellow Daoist, must you be so aggressive!?”
Although Lu Ping’an’s fighting style was somewhat similar to his early years, his Dao Foundation, Cultivation Technique, Qi and blood magic power were completely different from before, so the Wolf King did not recognize him, and said with a gloomy expression.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!!!”
Golden fists, like meteors streaking across the sky, a storm of blows, shattering layers of Void Realm, reaching the Wolf King’s eyes. His Aura was surging and vast, as if nothing could stop him.
“This…”
The weak youth, held by the Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf in the distance, watched the astonishing scene before him, as the Wolf King was beaten back step by step. His heart was filled with dread, and a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.
Although he didn’t know how Lu Ping’an was, he knew that once he fell into the hands of the Wolf King, he would surely die!
As Lu Ping’an swung his fists, the great dragon of his spine surged and roared.
The Indestructible Golden Body’s physique continuously erupted like a dormant volcano, with surging blood and Qi filling every corner of his Physical Body, bringing endless power.
Over the past year, Lu Ping’an had already understood and mastered the power of the Indestructible Golden Body.
He knew that this spiritual body possessed Indestructible characteristics, and ordinary injuries could automatically recover after a few days of rest, even if they exceeded the Physical Body’s limit, it wouldn’t be a big deal.
Moreover, his Great Wilderness Dragon Spine seemed to have merged with the Indestructible Golden Body in some way, allowing him to activate the power of the Great Wilderness Dragon Spine when operating the Indestructible Golden Body.
Even without using the Great Wilderness Dragon Armor, his strength, stamina, endurance, and recovery ability all increased by one level.
“Damn it!”
The Wolf King spat out blood, knowing that he was no match for Lu Ping’an at all.
At this moment, he didn’t even dare to let his Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf go forward to restrain Lu Ping’an.
After all, if the Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf went up, it might be crippled or even killed in three punches.
So, facing this situation, the Wolf King kept defending, waiting for an Opportunity to escape.
“Roar!”
Although the distant Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf did not directly confront Lu Ping’an, it interfered with him from the side, forming Rolling hot flame sand waves to share the pressure for its master.
“Kill!”
Although the Wolf King was preparing to escape, he showed no signs of fleeing.
Because he knew that since the person in front of him dared to come and kill him, he must have a sure method.
Choosing to escape now would only make him more passive, so he had to wait for a suitable Opportunity!
“Boom!”
The two figures collided violently, and the Wolf King spat out blood.
Just as their Qi separated, the Wolf King signaled to his Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf, crushed a Talisman in his hand, and intended to break through the Void Realm and escape.
However, Lu Ping’an dared to come and kill the Wolf King, so he naturally had confidence and assurance.
He had gained considerable rewards from Yu Tiansheng and Bai Lang’s Storage Pouches.
The ring he wore on his hand was one of the Magic Treasures he acquired!
“Suppress!”
He let out a low roar, offering a square, intricately patterned bronze cauldron, causing the Heaven and Earth Void Realm to tremble violently, as if solidified.
Although this bronze cauldron had not been thoroughly refined and its full power could not be activated, the Wolf King’s Talisman was instantly interfered with and affected.
Immediately after, a golden fist, carrying the illusory image of a Dragon and Tiger, roared out, unstoppable, causing the Void Realm in front to collapse.
“Not good!”
The Wolf King was horrified, and quickly crushed a Talisman, but he still grunted and spat out blood.
“Your Excellency, do you intend to annihilate me today!?
The Wolf King’s eyes were bloodshot, his Aura rising steadily, and he said in a deep voice, knowing that it would be difficult for him to escape today.
Lu Ping’an remained silent and continued to attack.
“Scarlet Blood Life Burning Escape Technique!”
The Wolf King did not continue to fight head-on and chose to burn his life to escape.
However, he knew that it would be difficult to shake off Lu Ping’an, so he activated a token from his Storage Pouch.
He had established the Wolf King Society in this Black Desert Immortal City, plundering and looting everywhere, besides knowing who he could offend and who he could not, it was also because he had a layer of influential background behind him.
Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for him to get help.
But these days, the Han Sha Illusion Domain was about to open, and his Old Ancestor had also come to the Endless Desert.
“I hope the Secret Realm doesn’t open now, the Old Ancestor is nearby.”
The Wolf King didn’t know where his Old Ancestor was at this moment, but he could only pray that the Secret Realm would not open and that his Old Ancestor could arrive as soon as possible.
“Roar!”
At this moment, the Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf roared and charged forward, fighting to the death to intercept and delay for its master, but it was blasted into scarlet sand by Lu Ping’an with one punch, and then transformed into endless fiery streaks of light, rushing towards the Wolf King.
Lu Ping’an reached out and caught a pale human figure that fell from the Scarlet Flame Sand Wolf’s mouth, saying, “Someone will be here soon, you should leave quickly.”
After speaking, he placed him on the ground and threw him a Teleportation Talisman and a bottle of Medicinal Pills for healing.
The Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator youth was stunned.
Cultivating for nearly a hundred years, he had never encountered such a kind-hearted person.
When he came back to his senses and wanted to ask Lu Ping’an’s name to repay him later, Lu Ping’an had already chased after the Wolf King.
His tall and burly Physical Body was burning with a layer of golden blood light, clearly using some kind of escape technique that burned essence blood and lifespan.
Looking at Lu Ping’an disappearing into the sky, his eyes were red, he clutched his chest, his face pale, and he shouted with all his might, “Junior Wei Tianchong, thank Senior for saving my life, I will surely repay you handsomely in the future!”
Although his Storage Pouch and exotic treasures had been taken by the Wolf King.
But he believed that as long as he didn’t die, he would eventually rise to prominence!
Opening the Medicinal Pill porcelain bottle and seeing that it was a high-grade healing Medicinal Pill, his heart was filled with even more gratitude, and after taking one, he immediately crushed the Teleportation Talisman and quickly left.
At the same time.
On a mountain Peak in the Endless Desert, several figures sat cross-legged.
Although none of them released their Spiritual Pressure, their faint magical Qi indicated that these people were extraordinary, at least all of them were at the Peak of Core Formation.
Just then, a lean and gaunt old man suddenly opened his eyes, and a token appeared in his hand.
“Hmm?”
Looking at the token in his hand, he frowned slightly.
“Loushan True Lord, what’s wrong?”
A fair-faced middle-aged man beside him asked when he saw this.
“A Junior from my Family sent me a message, something must have happened, I’ll go take a look.”
The old man called Loushan True Lord had a lean and gaunt face and figure, but he exuded an imposing and upright Aura, radiating authority without anger.
Although the Han Sha Illusion Domain was of great importance and could open at any time, he knew that the Wolf King sending him a message now surely meant something significant had happened.
Otherwise, the other party would never dare to disturb him at this time!
The others present exchanged glances upon hearing this, thinking what major event could have occurred at this time.
But since the other party said so, they found it difficult to persuade him, only stating that the Secret Realm might open.
“Don’t worry, when the Secret Realm opens, this old man will rush there immediately.”
Loushan True Lord said, then held the token in his hand and sensed for a moment, and his entire being transformed into a streak of light, breaking through the Void Realm towards Lu Ping’an and the Wolf King’s direction.
At this moment, a Golden Peng Bird, as if cast from gold, was flying through the wind and sand in the vast and boundless desert.
“This desert environment is harsh, and Spiritual Qi is barren. Oases with Spiritual Veins are all occupied. In this situation, it’s impossible to activate the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror by relying on Spiritual Veins.”
Lu Changsheng sat cross-legged on the Golden Winged Roc, looking at the boundless gray-yellow desert, feeling a headache.
The Endless Desert was vast, even larger than the Jiang Country Cultivation World.
In this situation, if he couldn’t activate the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror with the help of a Spiritual Vein, relying solely on the connection between the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror and the Sun Moon Plate, as well as his Bloodline connection with Lu Ping’an, would be very troublesome and time-consuming.
He subconsciously started to calculate with his fingers again, to see if there would be any sensation, but there was no movement at all.
“Forget it, let nature take its course.”
Lu Changsheng exhaled softly, signaling the Golden Winged Roc to fly towards the Wu Country.
Another location.
“Boom!”
In the sky, a booming explosion resounded, like two colliding volcanoes erupting, stirring up a golden and crimson light.
Immediately after, a burly figure crashed down from high in the sky, forming a huge deep pit, with dust flying and spreading.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
The Wolf King spat out blood, his Aura was dismal, and he felt all his bones were broken.
But seeing Lu Ping’an, who was aggressively continuing to attack, he still gritted his teeth and continued to burn his essence blood and lifespan, using earth evasion to escape.
Although Lu Ping’an’s earth evasion was not as good as the Wolf King’s, his blood and Qi were strong, and he possessed the Indestructible Golden Body, so the effect of burning his essence blood far exceeded that of the Wolf King.
Especially during the previous pursuit, he barely engaged in direct combat with the Wolf King, only consuming him through evasion techniques, which depleted the Wolf King’s essence blood and body.
It should be noted that the Wolf King also cultivated Body Refining, having reached the Third Stage, and was considered an outstanding Core Formation Middle Stage Cultivator.
Half an hour later, Lu Ping’an looked at the Wolf King, whose blood and Qi and magical power were almost depleted, and unleashed a powerful punch.
The Wolf King’s expression was shocked, enraged, and despairing; he still wanted to resist, but under the golden fist light, his Physical Body exploded, and a series of blood splattered.
“Bang!”
The Wolf King fell backward, his Physical Body shattered, his last trace of vitality extinguished, and he died, his ferocious face full of unresigned death.
He died without waiting for reinforcements, and he didn’t know why Lu Ping’an killed him.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
Seeing the Wolf King die, Lu Ping’an also gasped for breath, a wave of weakness surging through his body.
Although his Body Refining had broken through to the Third Stage Late Stage, he had not yet fully mastered the two Cultivation Techniques, lacking corresponding Divine Abilities and spells, and suitable Magic Treasures, which led to his Physical Body being strong enough but his lethality insufficient.
Otherwise, with the Dragon Tiger Wide Abyss Skill, Indestructible Golden Body, and a Third Stage Late Stage Physique, the Wolf King in front of him would not have been able to endure and escape for so long in his hands.
“After I go back, I must spend time thoroughly familiarizing myself with and mastering the Dragon Tiger Wide Abyss Skill and the Nine Cicada Undying Golden Body Strength.”
Lu Ping’an muttered, then stepped forward to deal with the Wolf King’s corpse.
Just then, the Void Realm rippled.
A lean and gaunt old man with an imposing Aura appeared.
When he saw the Wolf King’s shattered and lifeless Physical Body on the ground, his expression instantly turned to shock and rage, and then he looked at Lu Ping’an.
A powerful and terrifying Spiritual Pressure Aura surged from his lean, even somewhat hunched, Physical Body, stirring up the winds and clouds of Heaven and Earth, as if an ancient divine mountain had descended upon Lu Ping’an.
“You killed him!”
